Ten Percent
Gable Price and Friends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crumbs left on the corner table of my busy schedule
The daisies smell so nice, but the pollen hurts my eyes
My friend, locking eyes with harsh reminders
Repent, my tongue is tied while my hearts on fire
Treated love like a recipe, follow you and you're feeding me
But, I won't fraction my heart
Cause I don't guard my eyes
10% of my
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
I'm tired of tithing my heart
Hello, here's my heart and my spare time
No split eyes, no other Gods to idolize
I've treated love like my masterpiece
But love for you was a casualty
But I won't fraction my heart again, hey
I'm a broken cup spilling out
Imma drink the river till I start a drought
I'm never never never never never gonna fraction my heart again
I felt the touch of eternity
It drained the lake of uncertainty
And I won't fraction my heart again
Good God I pierced your side
Cause I don't guard my eyes
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
I'm tired of tithing my heart
The perfect polished pastor cannot save you
Your Meyers or your briggs won't buy your sins
You can break the alabaster on a podcast
Deconstruct the light till none can be let in
Self discovery can only get you so far, baby
You're heaven sent and only home will set you free
There's a middle eastern man, with holes inside his hands and he's out to get you
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
10% of my heart
I'm tired of tithing my heart
The song "Ten Percent" by Gable Price and Friends is a passionate plea to not let anyone or anything take more than their fair share of one's heart. The lyrics talk about how the singer has given only a fraction of their heart to someone, maybe due to their busy schedule, and doesn't want to give more for fear of getting hurt. The singer has idolized others and made love only a casualty, but now they refuse to let anyone fraction their heart again. They speak about the touch of eternity that has drained the lake of uncertainty and made them realize that only home can set them free.
The chorus touches on the singer's desire to stop tithing their heart and not let anyone take more than their fair share. They mention how self-discovery can only get one so far, and it's ultimately up to the individual to find freedom. The song also speaks about how the perfect polished pastor or personality test won't save someone's soul, and only by recognizing the middle eastern man with holes inside his hands (Jesus) can one truly find salvation.
The powerful lyrics of "Ten Percent" encourage the listener to focus on themselves, their heart, and their connection to a higher power. It reminds one to not let anyone or anything take more than their fair share and to seek true freedom and salvation.

There's a middle eastern man, with holes inside his hands and he's out to get you
Jesus, who was born in the Middle East, was crucified and his hands were pierced for our salvation
I'm tired of tithing my heart
I am exhausted from giving only a small part of my heart to love
